Their email server must be utterly overwhelmed. If you didn't get an email by now...

I'm thinking since the bar for entry is so low (all you need is a Newegg account) they must have had a massive influx of new accounts created. Whatever chances to win a chance to buy are now even smaller than ever before.

Buy a prebuilt with an iGPU CPU and a 3080. Only way out of this these days...

My 10 year old son now rocks a 9900KS lol.

No doubt. Keep eyes peeled on BB this coming Friday morning. However I wouldn't even bother trying for a FE card since the whole world is gunning for those now. Better chance trying to grab a less popular outlier model (plain Gigabyte, EVGA XC3) during that tiny window of opportunity.

If there's a drop Friday, it will be a test - and if BB hasn't changed their site code, will likely go by at blur speed since apparently a queue bypass has proliferated among paid bots.

This. I tried getting FE cards and saw other posts people grabbing EVGA cards.

Plus I agree something is up with the queue now. Last year towards the end if I got in quick I got a card, got 3 for me and family that way, one for nephew too and he was stoked. All FE cards. Now they go out way quicker and by the time I get add to cart they are gone and last two times I was on it the second it went live.

God damn nerds may have figured out the queue but i dont believe it. I hope we can score a good card this week from BB.

well there was a news in this thread that someone was bragging about about it online people ordering 10+ 6700xt on launch from BB.
 
Just a new player in the mix if you like paying over the newer inflated MSRP prices. As they have the GS tax well at least the EVGA cards do.

Didn't make the Newegg shuffle but I finally got my PS5. It's a damn sexy machine and the controller is the best it's ever been. Nearly Xbox Elite level.

I canceled all my notifications (except for EVGA) I think I'm just going to wait for the TI at this point.

Youll basically need to trade both the PS5 and xbox + cash for an RTX 3080 because they quite literally sell for over $2000 atm. Sadly.

I was hoping a guy might have an extra on here and not have consoles and want to do an even value swap.
Some of us dont win any cards and others get several. So far Ive only gotten consoles at good prices

The problem with them is you cant add them to cart there. each website has its issues, theirs is they wont sell you them when they are in stock.
ADD TO CART:....Undefined error message every time

Ugh. I hate graphics cards these days. I love how all the ones available are all the overpriced garbage models, like 3060's which are supposed to be $330 and 3090's for over $2k.

I entered the shuffle for another denial, I wouldnt mind the PS5 or a 3090 which I would just sell.

Is that monitor any good?
Im looking for a new monitor.

Can't really find a review, but it is interesting that it has the same model name as a decent Gigabyte 27" 1440p monitor.

Maybe a little German is what you need in your life.

I was noticing that while searching for it.
I noticed the Gigabyte is a curved screen so not the same monitor rebranded.

Why o why did you have to do this to me. I had a newegg business account and now I ended up spending another 300 thanks to you. This just looks really nice has 32GB of ram and another 1TB HDD I guess. I am gonna have to mine for a month or two to get the difference back. That has a damn handle! Got me!

I do have x570 board ryzen 3600 and gtx 1060 + 32gb ram to sell after I get this I guess I can get some of that money back.

But you got me. haha.

Its way worth it. Not to mention the cpu ram and storage, but that case alone. Let us know how it runs.
Kinda wish I got the Asus instead, but with the prices of 3080s on ebay I can't complain.
The Dell r11 I ordered is in production and still has eta of Mar 26, 2021 - Mar 31, 2021. I am a bit surprised its not delayed. Dudes i got a dell

Yea my first dell was the same way. Was still in production on estimated ship date lol. So looks like they are being over optimistic with dates.

Newegg Shuffle and Best Buy are the only ones really trying to help people beat bots. But I've entered in almost every newegg shuffle and never been selected so it seems like a joke too.
EVGA my notify queue too - but it's an absolute joke because they basically don't move the queue --- EVER. I've never been notified on a single card from there:

I've had pretty good luck with the EVGA Notify queue. So far I have scored 2 3090's, a 3080 and a 3060:

The trick is to get in early when they first turn on the Auto Notify for a given SKU.

You beat me to the punch more often than not. But I got a few on you. More than anything this shows me that I have about a snowballs chance in …. in getting a card off this list before the April price increase.
Arrow head to the left you win
Arrow head to the right my timestamp is earlier.

I think my biggest mistake in hindsight on these queues is that I mostly signed up only for the cheaper/budget cards, and I don't think those queues move much at all compared to the FTWs and such.

Apparently an AMD direct drop is about to happen in 30 min, in case anyone is waiting for that.
